All though I have finished my own twin sized quilt with no pattern, I not bragging, but I think it was my calling. It only took me 49 yrs to find out. HE HE! I'm now working on another quilt called the American Native Indians Life. Thats another one I designed. I actually got the idea when I bought my son this gorgeous shirt with beautiful; blues, rusts, beige on beige prints, tan print, solid gold, 7 different colors of indian motifs. So my head started ticking and I didnt know it at the time, but it took 4-12" blocks to make one complete block. I don't know what u would call that, two on top two on bottom and it made a diamond in the center. Sew, now I'm going to make two more sets of four, and mix in sashing, borders to give it a more settle look. "Does any one out there do this?

"Does any one out there do this?


Hello from Ohio. If you mean, looking at a picture and trying to figure out how they made that quilt, or how can I make that into a quilt the answer is yes for me.

Hello and welcome from Ontario. I believe that many of us use things other than patterns for inspiration.
